From: Frank Peterson

Re:      City Commission Meeting

Date: September 6 2018

Here is a quick outline of the items on our very full agenda(s):

WORK SESSION

      1. We are proposing some changes to our rental ordinance. Jeff Lewis and representatives
         from SAFEbuilt will be in attendance to discuss.
      2. We are proposing an extension to the purchase agreement for 1000 West Western to
         work out a number of title issues. We are now asking to close on the transaction by
         October 4, 2018.
      3. We are proposing that staff be allowed to enter into an agreement to sell 1078 Second
         Street. This is one of the rehab projects that the city started back in January. The
         purchase price is $140,000. The purchaser is a current resident of the neighborhood that
         will be moving from an apartment on Hamilton. She is a first time home buyer and we
         are excited to see this home go to her.
      4. We have three responses to the Mid-Town Square 2 request for proposals. Staff will be
         spending time Friday and this weekend finalizing our recommendation. We anticipate
         being in a position to make an initial recommendation to the Commission at work session.
         If there is an agreement in direction, we will plan to present to the neighborhood at an
         upcoming neighborhood meeting.
      5. ADA Department of Justice overview. Dwana Thompson will be in attendance to discuss
         this topic.

             The total cost is $250,117.00. This was budgeted in the equipment fund.

      with our CDBG and HOME programs.

             Jackson-Merkey Contractors for $454,559.00. The original engineers estimate

             Company’s new distribution center – which is currently under construction, and
             slated to open in 2019. The funds are budgeted in the Major Street Fund.

9/6/2018
                             REAL ESTATE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

         This Real Estate Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) is made August 30, 2018, by and between
the City of Muskegon, a municipal corporation, with offices at 933 Terrace Street, Muskegon, Michigan
49440 (“Seller”), and Rachel Stewart, of 81 Hamilton Ave. Apt. #38, Muskegon, MI 49441 ("Buyer")
(collectively the “Parties”).

         1.        General Agreement and Description of Property. Seller agrees to sell, and Buyer
agrees to buy the real estate and all improvements thereon, with all beneficial easements, and with all of
Seller’s right, title, and interest in all adjoining public ways, commonly known as 1078 2nd Street,
Muskegon, Michigan 49440, situated in the City of Muskegon, Muskegon County, Michigan
(“Property”), and legally described in Exhibit A, subject to the reservations, restrictions, and easements
of record, provided said reservations, restrictions, and easements of record are reasonably acceptable to
Buyer upon disclosure and review of the same.

    2. Purchase Price and Manner of Payment. The purchase price for the Property shall be One
       Hundred Forty Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($140,000.00). If the appraised value of the
       Property is determined to be at least Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) less than the purchase
       price, the Parties agree to reduce the purchase price to an amount no more than Five Thousand
       Dollars ($5,000.00) above the appraised value of the Property; provided, however, if the
       appraised value is below $100,000.00, the Parties agree to negotiate a new purchase price. The
       purchase price shall be payable as follows:

                 a.      Upon execution of this Agreement, Buyer will deliver to Seller a cashier’s check
        payable to Seller in the amount of $1,000 (the “Earnest Money”), to be held by the Title
        Company. If the transaction contemplated by this Agreement closes, the Earnest Money will be
        applied against the purchase price. If the transaction fails to close as a result of a breach by Buyer
        or Buyer otherwise failing to comply with the terms of this Agreement, Seller shall have the right
        to retain the Earnest Money.

                 b.      At Closing, Buyer will pay the remaining balance of the purchase price in full to
        Seller, by wire transfer, certified or cashier’s check.

        3.       Title Insurance. Seller, at Seller’s expense, will obtain a commitment for title insurance
issued by Transnation Title Agency (“Title Company”), for an amount not less than the purchase price,
guaranteeing title on the conditions required in this Agreement. In the event the reservations, restrictions,
or easements of record disclosed by said title commitment are, in the reasonable discretion of Buyer,
deemed unreasonable, Seller shall have 20 days from the date Seller is notified in writing of such
unreasonableness of restriction and such unmarketability of title, to remedy such objections. If Seller
resolves such restrictions and remedies the title (by obtaining satisfactory title insurance or otherwise)
within the time specified, Buyer agrees to complete this sale as provided in this Agreement, within 10
days of written notification from Seller. If Seller fails to resolve such restrictions or remedy the title
within the time above specified or fails to obtain satisfactory title insurance, this Agreement shall
terminate. The premium for the owner’s title policy, if any, shall be paid by Buyer.

         4.      Property Taxes and Assessments. Real estate taxes and assessments due and payable
prior to Closing shall be the responsibility of Seller. Real estate taxes that become due and payable after
the date of Closing will be the responsibility of Buyer.

        5.      Personal Property and Fixtures. All fixtures and appliances are included in this sale at
no additional cost to Buyer, except as specifically listed below. These items include, without limitation,


                                                      1
the following: plumbing, heating and lighting fixtures; all drapery and curtain hardware; all window
shades and blinds; all kitchen appliances; wall-to-wall carpeting, if attached; all attached mirrors and
bathroom mirrors; stationary laundry tubs; washer and electric dryer, water softener, water heater; heating
and air conditioning equipment (window units excluded); ceiling fans; built-in gas grills; water pump and
pressure tank; TV antenna; screens and storm windows and doors; awnings; mailbox; all plantings;
garage door openers and controls; fireplace screens and grates; locks and keys; and all personal property
located on the Property as of Closing. All such fixtures and other personal property included in the sale
are being sold “AS-IS”. The following items of personal property shall be excluded from the sale:
__________________________________________________
__________________________________________________________________________________.

         6.      Survey. Seller will provide Buyer with any existing surveys of the Property. Buyer, at
Buyer’s own expense, may obtain a survey of the Property, and Buyer or Buyer’s surveyor or other agents
may enter the Property for that purpose prior to Closing; provided, however, Buyer must order such
survey within 7 days following the full execution of this Agreement. If no survey is obtained, Buyer
agrees that Buyer is relying solely upon Buyer’s own judgment as to the location, boundaries and area of
the Property and improvements thereon without regard to any representations that may have been made
by Seller or any other person. In the event that a survey by a registered land surveyor made prior to
Closing discloses a material encroachment or substantial variation from the presumed land boundaries or
area, Buyer will notify Seller of such encroachment or variation within 5 days following receipt of the
survey, and Seller shall have the option of effecting a remedy within 10 days after disclosure and paying
the cost of such survey, or this Agreement shall terminate at the election of either party. Buyer may elect
to purchase the Property subject to said encroachment or variation.

         7.       Inspections by Buyer and Condition of Property. Upon completion of Seller’s
renovations to the Property, including construction of a garage, Seller shall provide Buyer with a
Certificate of Final Completion. For a period of fourteen (14) calendar days following Buyer’s receipt of
Seller’s Certificate of Final Completion (“Inspection Period”), Buyer has the right to inspect all or any
portion of the Property at Buyer’s sole cost and expense. These inspections may include, without
limitation, the soil and groundwater; all structures; pest inspections; municipal inspections as described
below; well and septic, if necessary; and the plumbing, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and
electrical systems. All such inspections shall be on prior notice to Seller and be done at reasonable times.
Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any damage to or injury to
persons or property caused by Buyer or Buyer’s agents in conducting such inspections. Buyer shall have
the right to terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Inspection Period if the inspections are not
acceptable to Buyer, in Buyer’s reasonable discretion, by giving Seller written notice prior to the end of
the Inspection Period, in which case Buyer would be entitled to return of the Earnest Money. If Buyer
does not exercise Buyer’s right to terminate prior to the end of the Inspection Period, the right to
terminate shall be deemed to have been waived and Buyer will be deemed to have accepted the Property,
improvements thereon, and all fixtures in their present, AS-IS condition.

         8.       Condition of Property. No implied warranties of habitability, quality, condition, fitness
for a particular purpose, or any other implied warranties shall operate between Seller and Buyer, and
Buyer expressly waives any and all such implied warranties. Buyer understands and agrees that the
Property and the personal property are taken “AS IS”. Buyer further represents and warrants that Buyer is
not purchasing the Property based on any representations made by or on behalf of Seller.

        9.      Lead-Based Paint. Buyer acknowledges receiving a Lead Paint Disclosure from Seller, a
copy of which is attached as Exhibit B.




                                                     2
         10.     Seller’s Disclosure Statement. Upon issuing a Certificate of Final Inspection to Buyer,
Seller shall simultaneously provide Buyer with a completed Seller’s Disclosure Statement.

        11.       Real Estate Commission. Buyer and Seller both acknowledge and agree that no agent,
broker, salesperson, or other party is entitled to a real estate commission upon the Closing of this sale.
Buyer and Seller both agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from any liability, including
reasonable attorney fees, occasioned by reason of any person or entity asserting a claim for a real estate
commission arising from actions taken by the other party.

        12.      Closing. The closing date of this sale shall be as mutually agreed by the parties, but in no
event later than ______________, 2018 (“Closing”). The Closing shall be conducted at the Title
Company or at such other location as the parties mutually agree.

         13.      Costs. The costs associated with this Agreement and the Closing shall be paid as follows:
(i) Seller shall pay the state and county transfer taxes in the amount required by law; (ii) Buyer shall be
responsible to pay for the recording of any instrument that must be recorded to clear title to the extent
required by this Agreement; (iii) Buyer shall pay for the cost of recording the quit-claim deed; and (iv)
Seller shall pay any Closing fees charged by the Title Company.

        14.      Deliveries. At Closing, Seller shall execute and deliver a quit-claim deed for the
Property to Buyer. The parties shall execute and deliver such other documents reasonably required to
close the transaction.

        15.      Possession. Possession of the Property will be delivered to Buyer at Closing; provided,
however, after full execution of this Agreement, Seller will reasonably permit Buyer to enter certain areas
of the Property to store certain items in the Property while construction on the Property is being
completed. If Buyer chooses to keep personal items at the Property prior to Closing, Seller shall not be
responsible for the loss, damage, or theft of Buyer’s items kept on the Property. Seller agrees that the
Property shall be vacant prior to Closing.


        16.     Default.

                a.       By Seller. If Seller for any reason does not perform the material terms and
        conditions of this Agreement, Buyer may, at Buyer’s option, elect to enforce the performance of
        this Agreement or be entitled to terminate this Agreement.

                b.        By Buyer. If Buyer for any reason does not perform the terms and conditions of
        this Agreement, Seller, at Seller’s option and in addition to any and all legal and equitable
        remedies available under Michigan law, may elect to enforce the performance of this Agreement,
        or be entitled to terminate this Agreement and retain the Earnest Money as liquidated damages.

          17.     Risk of Loss. Until the time of Closing, risk of loss because of the damage to or
destruction of any improvements located on the Property shall be solely that of Seller; provided, however,
that if such loss or damage to any improvements on the Property was caused by Buyer prior to the time of
Closing, Buyer shall be solely responsible for such risk of loss. In the event the improvements located on
the Property are damaged at the fault of Seller prior to the date of Closing, and are not repaired by Seller
prior to Closing, Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement; or Buyer may elect to continue this
Agreement in which event Seller shall assign to Buyer any insurance proceeds to be received by Seller
because of said damage or other destruction to the Property.

RE:                   Sale of Buildable Vacant Lot at 654 Allen Ave.


SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
To approve the sale of a vacant buildable lot at 654 Allen Ave. to Denise Koetje to combine
with her property at 650 Allen Ave., Muskegon, MI. The lot is 50 x 132 ft. and Ms. Koetje has
offered $500 for the property plus the fee to register the deed. She has a licensed day care
out of her home and would like to fence the property, install play equipment and provide
more space for the children in her care. She had already purchased 16 feet of this property
in 2017. The City has owned this property since August 12, 2003 with no inquiries for
potential construction. By combining this with Ms. Koetje’s property; this will alleviate the City
from continued maintenance and place the property back on the tax rolls. The City has
spent an average of $395.00 per year in maintenance of the vacant lot since 2002.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The sale of this lot will generate additional tax revenue for the City and will place the
property back on the City’s tax rolls thus relieving the City of continued maintenance costs.

BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
To approve the attached resolution and to authorize both the Mayor and the Clerk to sign
said resolution and deed.
                                           Resolution No. _______

RE:           Supplemental MERS Contribution




SUMMARY OF REQUEST: For the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2018, staff
conservatively budgeted for pension costs. The amount the City was expensing each
pay period for our pension costs was conservatively calculated, this created a
surplus. At this time staff believes it is appropriate to take this opportunity to make a
$111,257.58 supplemental payment (above the actuarial computed amount) to
MERS. This is money that the city would be required to pay to MERS eventually.
Paying early, while the city is in a position do so, may help to ease some pressure on
future city budgets.


FINANCIAL IMPACT:             $111,257.58 supplemental payment to MERS.
$111,257.58 will be paid from monies already set aside for MERS in the collector
fund.


BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.


STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Authorize staff to make a supplemental
$111,257.58 payment to MERS.
